Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu's Passionate Pursuit

Early the next morning, Richelie Dunn got up even earlier than usual.

After washing up, she went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the three children.

At seven o’clock, she finished preparing breakfast, went back to the kitchen to wash her face, and then opened the door to the children’s bedroom.

Last night, for the first time, she held all three children together to tell them bedtime stories.

As usual, Timothy and Tifanny fell asleep in about ten minutes.

Only Timmy, nestled in her arms, his eyes heavy with sleep and his thumb in his mouth, managed to stay awake almost till the end of the story before mumbling, “Did the dragon prince find his mom?”

Her heart aching, Richelie hugged her eldest son, her eyes red as she whispered softly, “Yes, he found her… just like Timmy, he found his mommy and his siblings…”

She held back tears, and kissed her son’s face, “Sweetie, goodnight.”

Timmy reached out his chubby little hand, felt her face, and mumbled, “Mommy, goodnight!”

At that moment, Richelie stood by the bed, thinking of last night’s scene, her eyes involuntarily welling up with tears again.

She bent down and gently kissed her two sons who were sleeping together, “Timmy, Timothy, time to get up!”

Timothy rubbed his eyes and sat up, his sleep-addled gaze hopping from Richelie’s face before he puckered up and planted a soft kiss on her cheek, “Mommy, good morning!”

Soon after, Timmy, with his messy curls, also sat up.

He opened his eyes, looking first at Timothy, then at Richelie.

Then, very naturally, he reached out his hand, clung to Richelie’s neck, propped himself up slightly, and leaned his face in close.

He planted a kiss on the other side of Richelle’s face and cooed in a soft, sweet voice.

“Mommy, good morning…”

At breakfast, the sharp-eyed Timothy noticed that mommy’s eyes were red.

“Mommy, why are your eyes red?”

Richelle smiled at her son, “I got bitten by a mosquito last night, and I kept rubbing and rubbing, so they turned like this.”

The children stared at her in unison, “You’re lying!”

Laughing, Richelle quickly changed the conversation, handing out bread to each of the children. “1 have to go to the hospital later. You all stay at home, and help Mrs. Walker with the housework, alright?”

Timothy and Tifanny nodded, while Timmy gazed at her longingly, “1 want to go to the hospital too!”

Richelle didn’t know the situation at the hospital, so even though she understood how Timmy felt, she couldn’t make the decision rashly.

“You finish your breakfast first, and 1’11 ask your daddy, okay?”

Timmy nodded, took a bite of his bread, and followed Richelle with his eyes, watching her until she disappeared into the bedroom.

About five or six minutes later, Richelle came back out.

“Timmy, your daddy said that Grandpa Clarkson is awake now and should be able to leave the hospital later, so you stay here and play. Once your daddy is done with work, he’ll come pick you up.”

Timmy was clearly disappointed, giving a low “oh,” and hanging his head to eat his bread.

Richelle, who had just learned some news over the phone, didn’t have time to comfort Timmy. She rushed to eat two more pieces of bread, drank half a bowl of porridge, and then pulled Timothy aside, asking him to look after his siblings. “Timmy is a little down, so you and Tifanny should try to cheer him up.”

Timothy nodded, “Don’t worry mommy, my sister and I will take care of him.”

Richelle was relieved; although the three children hadn’t grown up together, their hearts were always connected.

After saying goodbye to the children, Richelle hurried downstairs.

Just now in the bedroom, she had tried calling Roy Lewis, but no one picked up.

With a growing sense of unease, she quickly called Mr. Chapman.

As soon as the call connected, Mr. Chapman anxiously said, “Dr. Dunn, don’t come to the hospital today!”

Richelle remained calm, “Is it something to do with Mr. Lewis?”

“No, it’s the Thompsons causing trouble at the hospital!”

Richelle immediately thought of the conversation she had overheard between Roy and Diana Thompson last night, and if she wasn’t mistaken, this was a continuation of that situation?

“I can’t do that, I’m Diana Thompson’s attending physician, and if there’s any trouble, I need to be there to explain.”

Even though Richelle valued her own safety, she knew that putting the blame on someone else and making them suffer for her was a different matter entirely!

“Dr. Dunn…”

Richelle Dunn hung up the call from Mr. Chapman directly.

As she was not sure about the situation in the hospital, she called an Uber. The car was driven a few hundred meters away from the hospital and got stuck on the road.

The Uber driver made a call to ask about the situation. After finishing the call, he turned to Richelle and said, “Miss, there are some people making trouble in the hospital up ahead. The situation looks very bad, with banners and loud shouting. If you’re going to see a doctor, 1 suggest you go to another hospital!”

Richelle leaned forward and looked at the road ahead, which was completely jammed with cars.

“No need, 1’11 get off here. Thank you.”

The driver slowly pulled over to the side of the road, and Richelle got out and ran towards another entrance of the hospital.

Although she did intend to confront the situation, she wasn’t foolish enough to face those reckless rioters head-on.

About ten minutes later, she arrived at Mr. Chapman’s office.

The door, which was usually half-open, was tightly closed this time.

She gently knocked on the door, “Who is it?”

It was Mr. Chapman’s voice.

“Mr. Chapman, it’s me, Richelle Dunn.”

The door opened quickly, and Mr. Chapman, with an anxious face, pulled her inside.

“Richelle, didn’t I tell you not to get involved in this mess?”

The words of reproach, however, did not come from Mr. Chapman, but from Roy Lewis, who was sitting on the couch with furrowed brows.

Richelle smiled at him, “Mr. Lewis, you’re here too?”

Roy frowned at her, “I’m the actual manager of the hospital, isn’t it normal for me to be here? As for you, as the attending physician, you only need to be responsible for treating patients in the operating room and don’t need to deal with these irrational troublemakers.”

Gratefully, Richelle smiled at him, “Mr. Lewis, thank you for your kindness, but if I don’t show up, these lunatics will not stop. They will accuse the hospital of being guilty, of harboring culprits, and of not following the proper procedures. In short, as long as I keep hiding, they will have countless reasons to criticize and attack you!”

Richelle’s words were absolutely correct.

There were two main points that the people making trouble at the entrance of the hospital were focusing on.

First, whether the so-called expert who performed the surgery on Diana Thompson was a real expert, or just an intern.

Second, Diana’s abnormal mental condition after the surgery might be due to the doctor’s negligence and errors in the surgical procedure.

From these two points of view, it seemed that all the issues these people were focusing on involved Richelle.

If Richelle didn’t step forward to address these issues today, the Thompsons’ accusations against her would be confirmed by public opinion.

Realizing this, Roy Lewis also understood that if he exposed Richelle to the public today, her safety in Kindur would be severely threatened in the future.

Although he was holding the James Lewis father and son in check, they wouldn’t dare to go too far. However, since the Thompson background wasn’t clear, it was hard to say what measures they would take.

“In any case, no matter what you say, I will not let you be exposed to the public.”

As an internatioanal expert-level doctor, Richelle’s presence in the hospital was inherently mysterious. In the hospital files, her records were classified as top-secret, and apart from Roy, only Mr. Chapman, the Dean, had access.

That was why her ID tag was blank.

On the way here, Richelle had considered her own safety. However, there was hardly any way to protect both the hospital and herself.

“Mr. Lewis, there’s nothing you can’t cover up in Kindur. There’s no way to make the hospital and me emerge unscathed. So, we have to choose the second-best plan.”

Roy looked at Richelle with a cold expression, “Your second-best plan is to throw yourself in front of the guns of those lunatics to block the bullets? Have you ever thought about Timothy and Tifanny? Or do you think you’re some kind of superhero who can save all the stupid humans with a flick of your cape?”

Mr. Chapman, standing to the side, was too scared to even breathe. He felt anxious and panicked in his heart.

Ever since the hospital had invited Richelle, this great god, to return, he had always treated her with the utmost respect, fearing to offend her.

But now, his boss was just scolding her relentlessly.

Boss, can you please say less? Have you forgotten that your precious life depends on Dr. Dunn to save you?

And besides, didn’t you have an affair with Dr.. Dunn? Aren’t you afraid of kneeling on durian shells when you go home?
